Tourist Asking Directions – Everyday English for Travel

In this engaging skit, a tourist tries to ask for directions in basic English. Although the grammar is simple and sometimes incorrect, the intention is clear—and that’s the point! This video shows learners how communication can succeed even with limited English, especially when paired with gestures and key vocabulary.

You’ll learn practical phrases like Excuse me, How go there, and Where to buy a ticket, as well as responses like You can take the metro and The station is over there. It’s perfect for beginners learning travel English or anyone preparing for a trip.

This lesson also demonstrates that you don’t need perfect grammar to be understood—confidence, keywords, and body language help too. Try practicing the conversation out loud, and swap in your own travel destinations or questions to personalize the practice.
